The Morning After’s host Ben Stevens thinks Michigan State could be a live dog tonight, saying, “Michigan State has been an underdog four times this year against four very good teams. Kansas, UConn, Baylor, and then most recently Friday against Wisconsin. On the road in Madison, Michigan State won outright as a three-point dog. They have won outright in two of their four games as an underdog this year, and I think Michigan State goes barking tonight as an underdog.”
We recommend Michigan State at +4.5 on the spread or +164 on the moneyline against Illinois.
